I know there have been plenty of posts on here in the past relating to the Poynton shared space road scheme and if this has been covered feel free to zap my post.

Since early September, a change in family circumstances means that a few times a week I have to drive through Poynton at around 8.30am.

When i first started this, i was warned about congestion due to road works as they were having to re-lay a lot of the fancy paving as it was collapsing due to weight of traffic (didn't see that coming!!!!)

Anyway, said roadworks were gone by mid September but the traffic is still hell, queuing all the way back to Anglesey Drive and creating about 30 minutes delay every morning!

Now, going back a few years a go, before the "shared space scheme" was adopted, I used to have to use this route a lot and would have around a 5-10 minute delay as the traffic queued back to around the Sports Club.

Does anyone know if there are any other factors causing this delay or is this how rush hour will be through this area for the foreseeable?
